[Sundance ’14 Review] ‘The Signal’ Will Hack Your Attention

Although not heavy genre, Ryan Daley caught the world premiere of William Eubank’s The Signal at the ongoing Sundance Film Festival.

Starring “Bates Motel’s” Olivia Cooke and “Hannibal’s” Laurence Fishburne, the pic is about group of college students are lured to the middle of the desert by a hacker.

“What begins as a techno-thriller about the pursuit of an elusive computer hacker takes a surprising turn into hardcore sci-fi territory,” Daley explains in his review before adding that “there’s also a surprisingly moving human element, and Eubank skillfully manipulates the tone to achieve the best possible result.”
